< Jeremiah 3 >

1 Saying there! he will send away a husband wife his and she will go from with him and she will belong to a man another ¿ will he return to her again ¿ not certainly will it be polluted the land that and you you have acted as a prostitute companions many and will you return? to me [the] utterance of Yahweh.
“Kana murume akaramba mukadzi wake, iye akamusiya hake akandowanikwa nomumwe murume, murume uyu angadzokerazve kwaari here? Ko, nyika haingasvibiswi here? Asi iwe wakararama sechifeve navadiwa vazhinji, zvino ungadzokera kwandiri here?” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
2 Lift up eyes your on bare heights and see where? not (have you been lain with *Q(K)*) at roads you sat for them like an Arab in the wilderness and you have polluted [the] land by prostitution your and by wickedness your.
“Tarira kunzvimbo dzakakwirira dzisina miti uone. Iripo here nzvimbo yausina kumboitira ufeve? Mujinga menzira wakagaramo wakamirira zvikomba, wakagara kunge vanhu vouragu vari murenje. Wakasvibisa nyika noufeve hwako uye nezvakaipa zvako.
3 And they have been withheld copious showers and spring rain not it has come and [the] forehead of a woman a prostitute it belonged to you you refused to be ashamed.
Naizvozvo wakanyimwa mvura inopfunha, uye nemvura yomuchirimo haina kunaya.
4 ¿ Not from now (have you called *Q(K)*) to me O father my [were] [the] close friend of youth my you.
Ko, handiti uchangobva pakundidana here uchiti, ‘Baba vangu, shamwari yangu kubva pauduku hwangu,
5 ¿ Will he maintain for ever or? will he keep to perpetuity here! (you spoke *Q(K)*) and you did wicked things and you were able.
muchagara makatsamwa here? Kutsamwa kwenyu kucharamba kuripo nokusingaperi here?’ Aya ndiwo matauriro ako, asi unoita zvakaipa zvose zvaunogona kuita.”
6 And he said Yahweh to me in [the] days of Josiah the king ¿ have you seen [that] which she has done [the] apostate one Israel [has been] going she on every hill high and to under every tree luxuriant and she has acted as a prostitute there.
Panguva yokutonga kwaMambo Josia, Jehovha akati kwandiri, “Waona here zvaitwa naIsraeri wokusatendeka? Ari kuenda pamusoro pezvikomo zvose zvakakwirira nepasi pemiti yose yakapfumvutira achindoita ufevepo.
7 And I thought after has done she all these [things] to me she will return and not she has returned (and she saw *Q(k)*) treacherous sister her Judah.
Ndakafunga kuti mushure mokuita kwake izvi zvose, achadzokera kwandiri asi iye haana, uye mununʼuna wake Judha wokusatendeka akazviona.
8 And I saw that on all causes that she committed adultery [the] apostate one Israel I sent away her and I gave [the] document of divorce her to her and not she was afraid treacherous Judah sister her and she went and she acted as a prostitute also she.
Ndakapa Israeri wokusatendeka tsamba yokurambana ndikamudzinga nokuda kwoufeve hwake. Kunyange zvakadaro ndakaona kuti Judha mununʼuna wake wokusatenda haatyi; naiyewo akabuda akandoita ufeve.
9 And it was from [the] lightness of prostitution her and it was polluted the land and she committed adultery stone and wood.
Nokuti ufeve hwaIsraeri hahuna zvahwakareva kwaari, akasvibisa nyika nokufeva namabwe namatanda.
10 And also for all this not she returned to me treacherous sister her Judah with all heart her that except with deception [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Kunyange izvi zvakadaro, mununʼuna wake Judha wokusatendeka haana kudzokera kwandiri nomwoyo wake wose, asi kunyengera chete,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
11 And he said Yahweh to me she has made appear righteous self her [the] apostate one Israel more than [the] treacherous [one] Judah.
Jehovha akati kwandiri, “Israeri wokusatenda akarurama kukunda Judha wokusatendeka.
12 Go and you will proclaim the words these north-ward and you will say return! O apostate one Israel [the] utterance of Yahweh not I will make fall face my on you for [am] faithful I [the] utterance of Yahweh not I will maintain for ever.
Enda undoparidza shoko iri kurutivi rwokumusoro uchiti, “‘Dzokai imi Israeri vokusatenda,’ ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, ‘Handichazorambi ndakafinyamisa chiso changu kwamuri, nokuti ndizere nengoni,’ ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, ‘handingarambi ndakatsamwa nokusingaperi.
13 Only recognize iniquity your that against Yahweh God your you have rebelled and you have scattered ways your to strangers under every tree luxuriant and to voice my not you have listened [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Imi zivai mhosva yenyu chete, kuti makamukira Jehovha Mwari wenyu, mukafadza vamwari vavatorwa muri pasi pomuti mumwe nomumwe wakapfumvutira, uye hamuna kunditeerera,’” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
14 Return O sons backsliding [the] utterance of Yahweh for I I am husband over you and I will take you one from a city and two from a clan and I will bring you Zion.
“Dzokai, imi vanhu vokusatenda,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “nokuti ndini murume wenyu. Ndichakusarudzai, ndichatora mumwe chete kubva kune rimwe guta, uye vaviri kubva kuno rumwe rudzi, ndigokuuyisai kuZioni.
15 And I will give to you shepherds according to own heart my and they will shepherd you knowledge and insight.
Ipapo ndichakupai vafudzi vanofadza mwoyo wangu, ivo vachakutungamirirai noruzivo nokunzwisisa.
16 And it will be that you will multiply and you will be fruitful in the land in the days those [the] utterance of Yahweh not people will say again [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh and not it will come up on a heart and not people will remember it and not people will miss [it] and not it will be made again.
Mumazuva iwayo, pamunenge mawanda zvikuru munyika,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “vanhu havangazoti, ‘Areka yesungano yaJehovha.’ Hazvingazopindi mundangariro dzavo kana kurangarirwa; havazoishuvi, havangagadziri imwezve.
17 At the time that people will call Jerusalem [the] throne of Yahweh and they will be collected to it all the nations to [the] name of Yahweh to Jerusalem and not they will walk again after [the] stubbornness of heart their evil.
Panguva iyoyo vachatumidza Jerusarema kuti Chigaro choUshe chaJehovha, uye ndudzi dzose dzichaungana muJerusarema kuzokudza zita raJehovha. Havachazoteverizve kusindimara kwemwoyo yavo yakaipa.
18 In the days those they will walk [the] house of Judah with [the] house of Israel so they may come together from a land of [the] north to the land which I gave as an inheritance ancestors your.
Mumazuva iwayo imba yaJudha ichabatana neimba yaIsraeri, uye vose pamwe chete vachauya vachibva kunyika yokumusoro vachienda kunyika yandakapa madzibaba enyu kuti ive nhaka.
19 And I I thought how! I will set you among the sons so I may give to you a land of desire an inheritance of beauty of beauties of nations and I thought father my (you will call *Q(K)*) me and from after me not (you will turn away. *Q(K)*)
“Ini pachangu ndakati, “‘Ndichafara sei pakukubatai savanakomana vangu uye ndichikupai nyika inoyevedza, iyo nhaka yakaisvonaka yorudzi rupi zvarwo.’ Ndakafunga kuti muchanditi ‘Baba’ mukasazotsauka pakunditevera.
20 Nevertheless she deals treacherously a woman from companion her so you have dealt treacherously with me O house of Israel [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Asi sezvinoita mukadzi asina kutendeka kumurume wake, saizvozvo makanga musina kutendeka kwandiri, imi imba yaIsraeri,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
21 A sound on bare heights [is] heard [the] weeping of [the] supplications of [the] people of Israel for they have perverted way their they have forgotten Yahweh God their.
Kuchema kunonzwika panzvimbo dzakakwirira dzisina miti, iko kuchema nokuteterera kwavanhu veIsraeri, nokuti vakaminamisa nzira dzavo uye vakakanganwa Jehovha Mwari wavo.
22 Return O sons backsliding I will heal apostasies your here [are] we we have come to you for you [are] Yahweh God our.
“Dzokai, imi vanhu vokusatenda; ndichakurapai pakudzokera kwenyu shure.” “Hongu, tichauya kwamuri, nokuti imi muri Jehovha Mwari wedu.
23 Truly to deception from [the] hills a tumult mountains truly [is] in Yahweh God our [the] salvation of Israel.
Zvirokwazvo mheremhere youfeve iri pazvikomo, napamakomo unyengeri; zvirokwazvo muna Jehovha Mwari wedu ndimo mune ruponeso rwaIsraeri.
24 And the shameful thing it has consumed [the] toil of ancestors our since youth our flock[s] their and herd[s] their sons their and daughters their.
Kubva pauduku hwedu nyadzi dzakadya zvibereko zvamabasa amadzibaba edu, makwai avo, nemombe dzavo, vanakomana navanasikana vavo.
25 Let us lie down in shame our and let it cover us disgrace our for to Yahweh God our we have sinned we and ancestors our since youth our and until the day this and not we have listened to [the] voice of Yahweh God our.
Ngativatei pasi munyadzi dzedu, uye kunyara kwedu ngakutifukidze. Takatadzira Jehovha Mwari wedu, isu tose namadzibaba edu; kubva pauduku hwedu kusvikira nhasi hatina kuteerera Jehovha Mwari wedu.”
